[Red Mansion] Different Daiyu

What Hong Xu said was very concise, and anyone who listened could imagine how difficult it was.Lin Daiyu sighed, "Then do you know where she went? She is a girl, how can you rest assured that she will go alone?"

Hong Xu lowered his head, "Her hometown is in Fujian, and an aunt who is a direct relative married to Shandong. I don't feel worried about letting her go alone. But she insisted on leaving, and I couldn't keep her, so I gave away all my valuables. I gave her everything I had, and even found an escort for her to escort her to Shandong."

Lin Daiyu continued to ask: "She is a good girl. Is she Han?"

"Well, her father is the only scholar in the local area. He opened a private school, taught and educated people, and was respected by the local people. When I hid in her house, everyone covered me up. Later, after her parents died , It was the local people who helped us hold back those people, so she and I had a chance to escape." Hong Xu recalled.

"What's her name?" Lin Daiyu asked.

"Coincidentally, she and Erniang have the same surname, surname Lin, and their name is Ruoshui. Her father likes Tao Te Ching the most, so he named her Ruoshui, the highest kindness is like water. Water is good for all things without competing." smiling.

Hong Xu and Hong Yan looked at each other, and smiled at the same time. This third brother was the most rigid since he was a child. I didn't expect that he was so handsome in his heart. Is this the sullen type that Eniang said?

Lin Daiyu and Brother Jiu also looked at each other, and both had ideas in their hearts, "Hong Xu, tell Er Niang honestly, do you really like that Ruoshui? It's not gratitude, not guilt, but liking?"

Hong Xu nodded seriously, "Emiang, I can tell the difference. I also hope that I am only grateful and guilty to her. If that is the case, I can ask Erniang to recognize her as a righteous daughter and find a good marriage for her. , let her get married in a glorious manner, relying on the momentum in our house, no one dares to treat her poorly. There is no need to miss her like this now."

Lin Daiyu breathed a long sigh of relief, and patted Hong Xu on the shoulder, "Very well, your two older brothers seem to marry first and then love, but you, who are the most old-fashioned, gave me love first and then marriage. Don't worry, as long as you really like her, and she is really as good as you said, in this matter, Er Niang will decide for you, and you will be fulfilled."

Hong Xu raised his head in surprise, "Emiang, stop joking. Even if you and Ama agreed, what about Mama? Where's Mafa? And fourth uncle? Forget it, my son doesn't want to do it for his son's sake." The disturbance made the whole house uneasy."

Lin Daiyu glared at him dissatisfied, "You, when did you become so timid! Did you Mafa and Mama say anything about your eldest brother and second brother's marriage? It's all up to your fourth uncle. Don't worry, as long as it's settled Your fourth uncle, everything else is fine. It doesn’t matter if you are a Han Chinese. I am also a Han Chinese. Isn’t it different that I married your Ama? Besides, her surname is Lin. As long as the emperor agrees, I can completely marry you in Lin. Find someone in the clan to recognize her as a girl, and then she will be your cousin from afar, and cousins ​​are always a couple. It’s okay if this is not the case.”

Hong Xu was dumbfounded, "Emiang, everything you said is very good, but the important thing is, will fourth uncle agree?" He knew that fourth uncle was kind to him, and he didn't believe that fourth uncle would let him marry him. The daughter of a Han scholar is the first wife.

Lin Daiyu smiled, "You, you think your fourth uncle is too unreasonable. He loves you very much, yes, he wants to arrange everything for you, but he will not disregard your own wishes. Your fourth uncle Uncle loves you the same as we do. Don't worry, I will leave it to you, Ama, to convince your fourth uncle. Hurry up and tell me the address of Lin Ruoshui's relatives in Shandong, and I will send someone to go Shandong picked her up. And her parents died to save you, so we have to say something."

Hong Xu looked at Brother Nine suspiciously, and Brother Nine smiled, "Don't worry, silly boy, your mother-in-law said yes, then it's okay. You are Ama's son, and the most important thing is that you like it. Don't worry about it." Speaking of you, if your elder brother and second brother have girls they like, Ama will also make decisions for them."

Hong Xu looked at the elder brother and the second brother again, and Hong Chang Hong Yan came over and patted him on the shoulder with a smile, "Silly brother, you can have fun secretly."

Hong Xu didn't expect that the problem that had puzzled him for a long time could be solved so easily. He blinked and looked at everyone blankly, which made Lin Daiyu feel distressed and funny, "You silly boy, since you have someone in your heart, why should If you don't tell Ama'eniang in advance, you still have to hide it from us. If you are like this, even if your fourth uncle proposes marriage for you, you will be a couple in the future. Are you, Ama'eniang, such an unreasonable person? ? Our request for you is very simple, just be safe and happy. Our family doesn’t need in-laws to come to Vichy relationship. We don’t need you to sacrifice yourself to fulfill us.”

Hong Xu touched his head emotionally, "It's my son who made a mistake."

"It's good to know. But for your fourth uncle, you have to go and tell him in person, so that you can show sincerity?" Brother Jiu said with a smile, "Hehe, if you are worried, I will teach you a way. Coax your sister well, your sister has much more face in front of the emperor than me."

Hong Xu looked at Hong Chang and Hong Yan, they both nodded at the same time, Hong Xu smiled, "Understood."

The next day, Baozhen entered the palace, and she and Zhenhui pestered the emperor and acted like a baby. Seeing that Yongzheng was in a good mood, he was relieved.In the afternoon, elder brother Jiu personally brought Hong Xu into the palace.At that time, Baozhen and Zhenhui were accompanying the emperor to fish in the Imperial Garden, and the steward of the Imperial Garden looked sad, my long live lord, this is a koi, worth thousands of gold, is it appropriate to just treat it as an ordinary fish?

When Baozhen saw Ama and the third brother coming, she cast a glance over.

Brother Jiu and Hong Xu understood and nodded.

Seeing Brother Jiu and Hong Xu coming, Yongzheng smiled, "Are you finally here?"

Brother Jiu and Hong Xu were stunned. Could it be that the emperor is really so powerful that he knows everything?No, it's only been a day.There was no one else in the study that day.

Yongzheng felt complacent when he saw the expressions on the faces of the two of them. In fact, he didn't know what was going on. It was just that when he returned to the palace from the Nine Brothers' Mansion yesterday, Hong Yao hinted that he had thought of it at that time. There are people.Forget it, although I have great trust in the family of the Nine Brothers, so does Hong Yao, but Hong Chang is already the prince's son, and Hong Yan Hongxu is also named the county king. Their in-laws, the Fucha family and the Xilinjueluo family are all Manchurian surnames , Prince Ke's mansion is already prominent enough, there is no need for Hong Xu to look for a woman with a high family name.

"Tell me, what do you want to do with me?"

"Your majesty is really wise, how do you know that my brother has something to do with you!" Brother Jiu said flatteringly, it was related to his son's lifelong happiness, and he had to sacrifice one or two.

"Not only do I know that you have something to do with me, but I also know that this matter is related to Hong Xu's marriage, right?" Yongzheng sat quietly and said calmly, Su Peisheng quickly told the eunuchs and maids to back off. "Bao'er, this girl, refuses to enter the palace when she is idle. Every time I have to talk about it, she is willing to stay in the palace for a while. Today, she was rude and entered the palace suddenly, and even dragged Zhenhui to entangle me. All morning, make me happy, if I can't figure it out again, then I, the emperor, will be in vain."

"It's the fourth brother after all. As expected, the sky is so wise. It is worthy of being chosen by Huang Ama." Brother Jiu flattered and considered how to speak, "Actually, the thing is like this, fourth brother, Hong Xu This child has taken a fancy to a woman and wants to ask fourth brother to make decisions for her!"

"Oh? I guessed it would be like this. After all, is that woman so blessed? Can she be favored by Hong Xu?" Yongzheng said with a smile, the lower the status, the lower it is, as long as Hong Xu is happy.

Hong Xu lifted his robe abruptly, knelt down, and explained the ins and outs of the matter clearly.Ninth elder brother looked carefully at Yongzheng's face, but he couldn't see any expression, and thought to himself that the fourth elder brother is now the emperor, and the city is even deeper.On the other hand, the two little girls next to them automatically created a series of thrilling scenes in their brains, and they were extremely excited.

"Finished?" Yongzheng said.

"Yes." Hong Xu didn't dare to raise his head, "Nephew knows how kind Sibo is to nephew, and nephew has also thought about it, it's just a dream, but Er Niang is right, if nephew doesn't say Clearly, let the fourth uncle foolishly point out the marriage for the nephew, and the nephew has someone else in his heart, and in the end it must be a pair of resentful couples, but it has failed the fourth uncle's heart."

"Your mother is right, you are quite confused." Yongzheng snorted coldly, "I have always treated you the same as Hong Yao and the others, so I naturally want you well. You are your Ama's third son, You don’t need to take on too many responsibilities like Hongchang. It doesn’t matter if you’re a Han Chinese or a scholar’s ​​daughter, you just have to find another way to elevate your status. I’m disappointed by your attitude.”

"Uncle Si, my nephew made a mistake, don't be angry." Hong Xu took a few steps, knelt down in front of Yong Zheng, and said sincerely.

"Huang Ama, look at how pitiful my third brother is, just let him go." Baozhen also stepped forward and pulled Yongzheng's arm to plead.Zhenhui took Yongzheng's other arm and acted coquettishly.

Yongzheng was made comfortable by the coquettishness of his two daughters, "Okay, okay, I understand. You two little girls, it's too early for nothing. If you have a brother, you will forget about me, Ama. You know, the doll that Hong Xu brought is destined for you, right?"

Baozhen and Zhenhui smiled embarrassedly.

Yongzheng glanced at Hong Xu who was still kneeling on the ground, "Get up, what are you doing kneeling? Do you want me to give you the lucky money?"

Hong Xu stood up embarrassingly at this time. Seeing this, Brother Nine grinned and leaned forward, "Fourth Brother, Your Majesty, what can you do to make Hong Xu happy? The two villains belong together. In need, I heard from Hong Xu that the girl is well educated, although her status is a bit low, but Hong Xu likes it, there is nothing I can do about it."

"Stop playing sloppy with me, you husband and wife must have an idea in your heart, and I want you to take the initiative to say it." Yongzheng glared at Brother Jiu angrily. In his opinion, all the bad things were done by this younger brother , The children did wrong things because he didn't teach them well.

"Hey, fourth brother is wise." Ninth elder brother laughed, "This is what my brother and Fujin think. The girl happens to be named Lin, so why not send her to Suzhou and entrust it to my brother's father-in-law, pretending to be from the Lin clan?" The daughter of a man, both parents died, and the father-in-law of the younger brother thinks of the granddaughter, so this identity will be raised. This is also a good story between cousins. What do you think?"
